Which editor/IDE does Bisqwit use? Answers & some history. 

The Github repositories for That Editor and That Terminal can be found at: github.com/bisqwit?tab=repositories Topi’s RU-vid channel (seems abandoned) is here: ru-vid.com Nowadays he works as a technical lead at SoC department in Nokia.

+ what editor are you using? - THAT EDITOR! + nevermind, what terminal are you using? - THAT TERMINAL!

When trying to find suitable editor: - Me: google, read reviews, install and try. - Bisqwit: writes his own editor.

If I ever become an evil overlord with a secret base, I will get Bisqwit to be the voice of the computer that controls the building.

"That" Editor and "That" Terminal are the best names for software. Nearly died laughing!

That webcam footage of you from the year 2000 is awesome! Somehow feels like an old school nostalgia for me, back when I started using computers when I was a kid

The "Creating a terminal" series was/is one of the best things on your channel. More coding livestreams please!

Who stops the video just to see the complexity of Bisqwit codes? Merry Christmas Bisqwit!!

*Merry Christmas, Bisqwit!*

0:10 Hey that's me lol also thanks for answering

I was a constant user of qedit for C and assembler programming in the 90s. When I made the switch to Linux, I also gravitated toward joe initially, but eventually learned to get really good at vim. I spent a bit of time experimenting with emacs and lisp and scheme but now I'm back to good ol' vim. I can't even remember how to use qedit nowadays.

Today I learned that EDIT, a general purpose text editor in MS-DOS, is just a stripped down QBasic editor. :O

11:56 "The only remaining choice for me was to create my own editor."........ of course. of course.. why would you have any other option you freaking master of programming? ^^

I came here for the main anwser, but the story was so interesting I couldn't skip it!

Man, you are definitely a legend for me. I enjoyed this video so much.

Oh man QBasic is my childhood. And great video!

THAT EDITOR!

This is lovely Thank you so much for this content, we dont see much of this on youtube any more

Every time you announce "that editor" it trips me out and I think somebody's about to run up my stairs LOL

Wow you finally put it for everyone to be clear

When he said "That Editor" and "That Terminal" I felt that

Wow, that answered a lot of questions. Including why it looks like your programming is so perfect. :)

I love *that editor*

It's funny that this video was being made since 2017 :D

THAT VIDEO! is really cool :)

as a 12 years old kid and a backend dev i watch this video so many times to understand. This channel is so cool. God bless you, Mr. Bisqwit

Ah the days of the Borland Turbo C++ Editor.. before Vi/Vim, that was my editor of choice. After I installed Slackware Linux, I did try emacs up until I found Vim and I've used Vim ever since. Never liked Joe or any of the other editors. Can't say I really tried them once I found my spirit-editor in Vim :P

I'd love to live in those years when BASIC was popular...

I still use CTRL+Insert, Shift+Insert and Shift+Delete in Windows 10 because they are easier to type than the regular cut-copy-paste commands when you use the Dvorak layout.

that IDE chronology story is same as my story, except own editor :D (I had one own "editor", built with turbo pascal vision, and I never used it in the wild) mutta sä oot kova mies!

Merry Christmas to Bisqwit !!!

QBasic and Turbo Pascal. I miss those days.

I have a project for you. write a shell in asm using templates so as all arguments and returns are not typed. you will have too write your own oop subsystem in asm to acheive this but the end result is the beginning of an undetectable root kit. keep up the great work and thanx for the php paper. I truly hated the idea of learning such a scripty language. your paper has made it so much easier.

I use a plethora of IDEs and tools, and I'm always hitting the wrong shortcut key for the wrong editor at some point...It's usually the build/run/debug/step shortcuts.

I wish IDEs/editors today had the ability to select from a great choice of bitmap fonts with all kinds of sizes... it's even difficult to find ones that just support bitmap fonts at all :( anti-aliased fonts look blurry to me so I prefer bitmap fonts (or fonts that look great aliased)

We need to transform THAT EDITOR into THE EDITOR

Kiitos videoista ja rauhallista joulunaikaa!

You’re awesome bisqwit! I love your content and you have an awesome accent when speaking English.

Very interesting. Speaking of editing and typing, do you have any keyboard preferences? Such as those ergonomically shaped ones? Any favourite mechanical keyboard switch? I wanted to upgrade my $20 membrane keyboard recently and my research has brought me deep into the world of mechanical keyboards...

What a story that was, beatiful

You are awesome man 👍 I loved the work THAT EDitOR

Lovely video thank you I started on a zx spectrum, then Borland, then Linux etc

This guy must be Phineas and Ferb's Dr. Doofenshmirtz(The Evil Scientist)

Qbasic for the win

That

Kids: use Sublime Text Men: use VS Code Legends: use Notepad GigaChads: make their own code editor.

I use Code blocks with a personalized theme, my friends say I live in the past xD And that I should use VS code or VS studio. But I still prefer CB ^^ Take it fast, direct and simple.

Hi Joel Yliluoma ( Bisqwit) . How many programming languages do you know and use ? Have you tried Rust programming language? Please share your thoughts. I am a huge fan of your programming videos and your programing skills.

It seems we both have nearly the same programming language history. Learned BASIC under MSDOS at the beginning of the 90ties. Then switched to TurboPascal, later BorlandPascal and from there to Turbo C++ 2.0 and from there to Borland C++ 3.1...What a journey. XD

Happy Holidays, Bisqwit :)

Very cool, thanks! I’m writing my own text editor, with an eye on VIM and a design similar to 4coder. What for? Because we are programmers and must make tools with which we have to work for ourselves. If you want to do something well - do it yourself! (: PS: Привіт з України!

Hyvää huomenta.

Bisqwit your'e awesome!

Bisqwit, which version Debian you use? And also you, as an experienced programmer, what you need to learn before any programming language?

Borland Pascal was my first introduction to programming. Big shout out to my brother!

That was that Editor.

Nice vid. Fun with some background.

Really interesting video... and liked the Background voice

Hej, we started out similarly :) GWBasic, QBasic, Turbo Pascal, Borland Pascal, ..... I've spent a few years with OS/2 before switching to Linux, though.

I used turboc 3 years ago and it was fricking good. Srsly and also the debug is so simple and effective :D

Maybe I'm seeing things because I want to see them, but Visual Studio Code uses Ctrl+K by default as a modifier key (?) that waits for another press afterwards. Kind of like Emacs's default Ctrl+X.

Instead of writing 8700 lines of configuration files I have written 8700 lines of C++ code to form my editor. Named exactly that, my editor2 (first iteration was not good), i.e., me2. My muscle memory is emacs key bindings. Quite nice to have one binary, no configuration files, and it just works as expected out of the box. Every time. On every computer.

9:50 Graphics cards and computers were plenty fast, and if they weren't fast enough plenty of companies sold accelerators to speed up graphics operations, mainly for CAD. Computers weren't slow, X Window and the Linux kernal were just beyond inefficient and rendered machines they were on to be completely useless well into the Pentium III era.

QBasic was my first programming language in like 2008.

Thanks soo much

What's the color scheme he's using?

*_THAT EDITOR_*

GWBASIC is the best editor/interpreter, you convinced me, thank you! :D

3:21 holy shit

חג חנוכה שמח!

1:23 I can only imagine how jarring 80s screen/BASIC editors are to modern viewers. It's completely unlike how any modern editor works. I remember in the very early 90s seeing kids in high school typing out their papers as a huge basic file with tons of PRINT statements (which were redirected to the printer). That's the only text editor a really basic 80s computer had, out of the box! (Yeah, and no word wrap, so type it right the first time! ;)

Joe was my editor of choice in high school.

Please start some Udemy courses from beginner to advanced C++. I’m sure a lot of people would be interested. You seem to know more than a lot of other people that teach C++.

You're a legend

I have tried many editors, including emacs and Jed. But in the end, I always somehow end up coming back to Joe.

a alternative to joe is fte or efte for run in linux, mingw or cygwin.

Basic was my 1st programming language. A Basic tutorial would be welcome. 😁

As my skills improved over the years, I feel more comfortable with the least amount of disturbing visual elements. I went the opposite way, I started with VC++ 6 (around 2001), went to codeblocks, then notepad ++ (/geany) to end up with vim. Lately at the job (for shell / perl / scripting) and for my personal C++ project at home, I stick with vim inside BSPWM :-) It's a breeze when you have a long session of typing and don't want to leave your keyboard to use your mouse. It's also a lot more comfortable for programming on a laptop, but that's my personal opinion.

How did you record the DOS sections of the video? It's too sharp to be a recording of an actual CRT but I've never seen a CRT shader look that good.

I have a tip for you: When uploading a video, make sure to tell what text editor you use, so people will know! :D

Music used in this video? I love MIDI ports.

Bro the audio has some weird stereo panning when you talk. The sound is mostly on the left side and jiggles between the ears...

What is the name of the song at 12:00

Cool video, btw which editor do you use?

Interesting 👍🏼😮 I wish you nice and happy Christmas days 🎄🎁☕🎊 ;)

From where did you learn to program? You are so impressive

What ide are you using? JOE

The hard part compiling without clver tools like gcc.

You should have playlist just for "What editor I use"

the guy live in 90 years. he don't know about modern IDE. But He is truly a Programmer ;)))

So... In % how much of your time using vim was spent on trying to exit it without killing the process?

It's not about what IDE/Editor you're using it's about how competent you are writing code.

Lovely!

what editor do you use for your code?

Just curious, why don't you use other text editors like VSCode?. I can understand why a lightweight editor can be beneficial when you are working on raspberry pi, arm processors. But VSCode has tons of extensions that just make your life so much easier.

did you create a script for capturing all those screenshots at the beggining of the video?

we used borland or whatever at school... in 2015

I use nano :P

I still dont understand why you are always short on gear even you are living in Finland and having jobs.
